Hi I'm Esta.
I am a member and class leader of the agriculture district. A part of being the agriculture district is keeping our flora and fauna safe from forieghn parasites. All animals that will be coming with us and living with us on Aurora 56z will go through the quarantine process we have devised. All animals will be in iscolation for the maximum know incubation time of the suspected disease/s. This will ensure that all animals and plants will not be harmed.
This is a list of what my group (agriculture) is going to take on our arc:
Seeds
Saplings
Animals
Soil
Farming tools
Fertiliser
Wheat and rice
Water/flittering
Animal feed
Food
Worms
Corrals
Animal accessories eg. brushes, lead ropes, halters, saddles
Wood
Minerals

My arc (SC 200) details:
Name:
SC 200
Length:
168, 472.227 km
Height:
15,000 km
Width:
34, 236.11 km
Volume:
5,543,280,000 km3
Number of passengers:
1,415,733,000 people
Cargo:
Building materials, livestock
Landing system:
When the SC 200 breaks through the atmosphere of Aurora 56z landing pads drop from the bottom on the the surface of the planet and a parachute comes out the back of my aircraft. When the SC 200 lands on the pads a sort of airbag engulfs the spacecraft that acts as a schock absorbent
Materials used for main body:
Titanium, aluminium and copper becuase they are very light weight and durable. Lithum because it has a high heat capacity
Materials used for heat shield:
My ship has numerous solar panels which can endure very high temperatures. For the parts that are not covered in solar panels there is a thick metal that can endure the hottest heats that is mixed with Lithum which has a high heat capacity
Any other notes:
The SC 200 crew consists of: 20x pilot/monitoring crew:(8x for flying, 2x for monitoring the heat shields, 5x monitoring oxygen levels,5x fuel control) 500x monitors/guards of sleeping quarters 1000x cleaning crew/cooks
Google sketches of the SC 200: Animal corral. There will be a number of these and they will hold all livestock.

ANIMAL QUARANTINE
QUARANTINE DEFINITION: a period of isolation or detention, especially of people and animals arriving from abroad to prevent the spread of disease, usually consisting of the maximum known incubation period of the suspected disease.
As the district of agriculture, we will need to issue laws regarding the quarantine of Flora and Fauna. The first set of laws we are going to issue are regarding the quarantine of animals such as pets like dogs and cats and the quarantine of livestock such as horses, cows and sheep.
ANIMAL QUARANTINE LAWS: (Written and issued by Dr. Esta Pound-Palmieri)
1. All livestock (horses, cows, sheep etc. etc.) will be held in quarantine for a period of time that can range any where from 2 weeks to 2 months. The iscolation time will be:
- Equine (horses): Equine Influenza is a highly contagious disease that causes sudden temperature rise, loss of appetite, a dry hacking cough and muscle pain/stiffness. The longest incubation time of this is 30 days and this is one of the longest incubation times of equine diseases. To ensure maximum safety all horses will be in quarantine for 40 days
-Cows: 40 days because that is the maximum incubation time for most diseases caught by cows
-Sheep: 40 days because that is the maximum incubation time for most diseases caught by sheep
-Pigs: 40 days because that is the maximum incubation time for most diseases caught by pigs
*All livestock will be in quarantine for 40*
2. During the 40 days all livestock will be:
1. Washed
2. Have veterinary checks that will include:
a) checked for diseases b) Checked for permanent health issues c) General check up
3. Injections against diseases
3. Precautions:
We are going to have to take precautions to ensure maximum safety of our already existing flora and fauna, but also, more importantly the safety of the people working around the animals in quarantine. Many highly contagious and dangerous diseases can be passed on from animals to people. To make sure that no one is in danger we will:
1.Make sure all animals with diseases that can caught by humans are only treated by specialised vets that have had injections against the disease
2. All stalls holding livestock with contagious diseases will be in a different building to the stalls that are holding animals with either no diseases or sickness or stalls holding animals with uncontagious diseases.
Minecraft:
Log 1: What I learnt: This was the first time we actually went on minecraft and started playing. Even though it was the first time I have played minecraft, I learnt a lot. I learnt the basics on minecraft, like how to build things, how to move around and how to use the inventory.
What I did: I am a part of the agriculture district, so we discussed how we would build our quarantine stations and where we would build them. We then thought about what material we would build the walls out of. We choose diamond blocks because they are strong and animals can't get through them.
Log 2: What I learnt: We started to build the quarantine station, so we needed animals to put into it so I learnt how to spawn animals. To spawn an animal, you go into the inventory and choose which animal you want, select the animal then put it onto the ground. We spawned pigs, cows, sheep and cows.
What I did: We started to lay down the diamond blocks for our fauna quarantine station. We didn't finish, but we completed about half of it.
Log 3 What I learnt: This was the third time playing on minecraft, so I was a bit more advanced than the first couple of times. What I did learn though was how to spawn squid and put them in water.
What I did: Because each animal has to be separated, put into isolation, we needed to build stalls to keep the animals in. We built these out of glass blocks so we could see through them
Log 4: What I learnt: We have finished building the walls of our quarantine station, but each time we want to get inside we ave to make a hole in the wall. To stop that I learnt how to put in doors and how to open and close them.
what I did: The biggest thing we did this session was finish off the roof. This means we can start building the second level of our quarantine station. We also put in doors so that we could move around inside the station.
